How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Aiea

A dry looking wall face can conceal a wet backside. Moisture mapping helps the technician avoid leaving damp layers closed in.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Aiea floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Aiea building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Soaked insulation may block a ceiling cavity from drying. The crew removes material when its condition calls for it.

4. Dry and verify materials

   After extraction, controlled air movement removes remaining moisture. The crew checks the building before finish work starts.
